Job Description
Senior FinOps Consultant
Why This Role?
Cloud investment continues to grow, and organizations need expert guidance to maximize value from every pound they spend. As a Senior FinOps Consultant, you'll work directly with customers to identify cost-saving opportunities, optimize public cloud environments, and build mature FinOps capabilities that deliver long-term business value. This is a highly visible consulting role combining technical expertise, commercial awareness, and customer engagement.
What You'll Be Doing
- Identify, analyze, and prioritize cloud cost optimization opportunities across Azure, AWS, and GCP environments.
- Quantify potential savings and business benefits using FinOps methodologies and tooling.
- Implement usage and rate optimization strategies to reduce cloud expenditure and improve efficiency.
- Design and deliver FinOps maturity roadmaps tailored to customer objectives.
- Lead customer workshops, presentations, and enablement sessions for both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Produce high-quality customer-facing reports and optimization recommendations.
- Advise organizations on cloud financial management best practices and governance.
- Collaborate closely with pre-sales, professional services, and managed services teams to drive successful customer outcomes.
- Support customers in establishing and scaling FinOps operating models.
- Help organizations build sustainable processes for continuous cloud cost optimization.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.

Why you're a good match
You’ve got the grades and the economics background, and your bank internship is exactly the experience this scheme looks for. Apply soon — deadlines close within the month.
Experience fit
Your summer at the bank plus your econometrics coursework map directly to the day-one responsibilities on this scheme — client modelling, market briefings, and deal support.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What We're Looking For
Essential
- Proven experience implementing FinOps practices within Azure, AWS, and/or GCP environments.
- Strong knowledge of the FinOps Framework, lifecycle, domains, and capabilities.
- Hands-on experience with cloud cost management and optimization tools.
- Ability to analyze complex data sets and identify trends, anomalies, and cost-saving opportunities.
- Strong customer-facing consulting and stakeholder management skills.
- Experience presenting to both technical and non-technical audiences.
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to explain cloud economics clearly.
- FinOps Practitioner or FinOps Professional certification.
Desirable
- AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner.
- Microsoft Certified: Azure Fundamentals.
- Experience operating within multi-cloud environments.
- Experience designing FinOps transformation or maturity programs.
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Work directly with customers to influence cloud strategy and spend optimization.
- Gain exposure to Azure, AWS, and GCP across a variety of client environments.
- Deliver measurable financial outcomes and cost savings.
- Lead FinOps maturity and cloud economics initiatives from strategy through to implementation.
- Combine technical, commercial, and consulting expertise in a highly sought-after specialization.
- Develop trusted advisor relationships with senior business and technical stakeholders.
